Palm Sunday. Humanity is almost all online or near online (friend or family). We have an opportunity to rescue Ukraine and Russia and all the people who need morality lessons. We need to use our social machines to say enough is enough of this bullshit of mindless aggression.

The Kremlin planned this and is rubbing it in our face... BBC, Adam Curtis, 2014: "A ceaseless shape-shifting that is unstoppable because it is undefinable. It is exactly what Surkov is alleged to have done in the Ukraine this year. In typical fashion, as the war began, Surkov published a short story about something he called non-linear war. A war where you never know what the enemy are really up to, or even who they are. The underlying aim, Surkov says, is not to win the war, but to use the conflict to create a constant state of destabilized perception, in order to manage and control."

Repeating, over a decade ago, 2014, Russia bragged: "The underlying aim, Surkov says, is not to win the war" - BBC

What good are symbolic days like Palm Sunday when the population of everyday people in the world can't come together and start teaching these leaders we don't want this bullshit of greedy self-centered wars that are intended to be used to take over the world. Just look at how far Putin and Surkov's plan has progress, now North America is starting war of USA taking over Canada and Greenland because the Surkov plan works so well.

Enough of this bullshit. "The underlying aim, Surkov says, is not to win the war, but to use the conflict to create a constant state of destabilized perception." - I call this "Operation Matthew 4:19" - we are all getting played and we aren't even calling out the scheme. Sickening.

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff suggested that Donald Trump support the "transfer" of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions to Russia. <<< Hybrid War Lost to Kremlin, "Hearts & Minds" lost since March 2013 simulacra war launched

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff suggested that Trump support the "transfer" of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions to Russia.

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, after meeting with Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev, proposed to U.S. President Donald Trump to support the transfer of four regions of Ukraine - Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson - to Russia for a faster end to the war. This is reported by Reuters, citing sources, reports UNN.

According to Witkoff, the fastest way to achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine was to support a strategy that would give Russia ownership of the four eastern Ukrainian regions it tried to illegally annex in 2022 - the publication writes.

The publication notes that Witkoff expressed this thesis earlier in an interview with Tucker Carlson.

U.S. President's Special Representative for Russia and Ukraine Keith Kellogg opposed Witkoff, saying that while Ukraine is willing to negotiate some terms related to "disputed land," it will never unilaterally cede full ownership of territories to Russia.

Trump Created an Economic Sinkhole. He Doesn’t Care

There is no strategy behind the tariff chaos — it’s all about personal grievances and settling scores.

April 7, 2025

Such ignorance.

More than a decade ago: “In the twenty-first century the techniques of the political technologists have become centralized and systematized, coordinated out of the office of the presidential administration, where Surkov would sit behind a desk on which were phones bearing the names of all the “independent” party leaders, calling and directing them at any moment, day or night. The brilliance of this new type of authoritarianism is that instead of simply oppressing opposition, as had been the case with twentieth-century strains, it climbs inside all ideologies and movements, exploiting and rendering them absurd. One moment Surkov would fund civic forums and human rights NGOs, the next he would quietly support nationalist movements that accuse the NGOs of being tools of the West. With a flourish he sponsored lavish arts festivals for the most provocative modern artists in Moscow, then supported Orthodox fundamentalists, dressed all in black and carrying crosses, who in turn attacked the modern art exhibitions. The Kremlin’s idea is to own all forms of political discourse, to not let any independent movements develop outside of its walls. Its Moscow can feel like an oligarchy in the morning and a democracy in the afternoon, a monarchy for dinner and a totalitarian state by bedtime.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, year 2014

China lashes out at JD Vance for calling Chinese people ‘peasants’

By Nectar Gan, CNN

Hong Kong CNN — China on Tuesday slammed US Vice President JD Vance for referring to the Chinese people as “peasants” in an interview that has drawn widespread ire and ridicule on China’s internet – and comparisons with Vance’s own self-proclaimed “hillbilly” background.

Speaking to Fox News last Thursday, Vance defended President Donald Trump’s market-hammering tariffs and railed against the “globalist economy.”

“What has the globalist economy gotten the United States of America? And the answer is, fundamentally, it’s based on two principles – incurring a huge amount of debt to buy things that other countries make for us,” Vance told news show “Fox & Friends.”

“To make it a little more crystal clear, we borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture.”

Asked about Vance’s comments at a regular news briefing Tuesday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said: “It’s both astonishing and lamentable to hear this vice president make such ignorant and disrespectful remarks.”

https://global.espreso.tv/russia-ukraine-war-white-house-explains-why-new-tariffs-do-not-apply-to-russia-and-north-korea

A White House official, speaking to The New York Times on condition of anonymity, explained that Cuba, Belarus, North Korea, and Russia were not impacted by Trump's tariffs because "they are already facing extremely high tariffs." He added that existing sanctions prevent any full-scale trade with these countries.

Notably, a 10% tariff will be applied to goods from Ukraine.

"addiction to Vlad Surkov style antics"

This means: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2014/12/31/bbcs_adam_curtis_on_the_contradictory_vaudeville_of_post-modern_politics.html

"His aim is to undermine peoples' perceptions of the world, so they never know what is really happening. Surkov turned Russian politics into a bewildering, constantly changing piece of theater. He sponsored all kinds of groups, from neo-Nazi skinheads to liberal human rights groups. He even backed parties that were opposed to President Putin. But the key thing was, that Surkov then let it be known that this was what he was doing, which meant that no one was sure what was real or fake. As one journalist put it: "It is a strategy of power that keeps any opposition constantly confused." A ceaseless shape-shifting that is unstoppable because it is undefinable." - BBC, Adam Curtis, 2014
